Youre missing exercise and good diet retard
Nofap is a meme
Smoking doesn't affect your weight (you choosing to eat more isn't an effect)
Alcohol is a good start
But you need to diet, tubby

don't stop smoking, it increases your BMR and suppresses apetite. Just do it after you lose the weight.

>6% in BMR/day (from one study) is worth the trade off of completely killing your cardio, endurance, wallet, and health

Those are negligible differences and the decrease in BMR far more positive than the numerous side effects smoking has.
I hate when I see an obese person claim they just quit smoking and it caused them to gain like 50 pounds. No it didn't, bitch, you just ate a slice of cake instead of smoke a cig

Nofap is not a meme, focus on it and you'll find your willpower with other things is a lot stronger.
How bad is drinking alcohol the night of gym day?

(1) Dehydration – Should be fairly obvious. Saturated muscles grow better than dry ones. Consuming alcohol dehydrates muscle tissue resulting in a weakened anabolic environment.
(2) Reduced Protein Synthesis – Protein synthesis is the process of building muscle. When we work out we break down our muscle tissue; growth then takes place in the rest period afterwards as the tissue is repaired – this process of repair is called ‘protein synthesis.’ The rate at which this happens decreases with alcohol consumption.
(3) Decreased Testosterone –The vast majority of research conducted in the past 25 years in both animals and humans has found that alcohol inhibits testosterone secretion. Testosterone is a very anabolic hormone which is why you want to implement a diet that naturally maximizes testosterone levels. Therefore alcohol should be minimized.
(4) Hangover – No explanation need here I hope. You can forget having a great workout for 48 or even 72 hours after a heavy night’s drinking.

Congratulations on quitting alcohol and tobacco. That's a great first step.
To lose weight, you need to eat a calorie deficit. Start meal planning and counting your calories. If you cut out soda, sugars, take-out, and overly processed foods, it shouldn't be too hard to meet your calorie goals.
That's it. For specifics on routine, read the sticky. Can't say whether nofap is a meme or not, but I have felt better since I cut down to about once a week.

What the fuck kind of logic is that?
Oh wait, it's fat logic.
